Hello, I'm Doug and I'm an alcoho... Oops. Wrong introduction. I really do hate to do these things, but I guess some kind of introduction is in order. I'm middle-aged, anti-social, a long time wrestling fan and avid reader of comics. Well, I used to be anyhow until one day that I had to choose between buying my comics or paying my rent. The rent & other bills won and I quit collecting comics, but luckily I already had close to thirty years of collecting to tide me over.

My favorite characters to write are Dr. Druid, Barnabas Collins, Joan Rivers, Mantis, Magneto, etc. I've created my own alternate universe called the "Avenging Shadows" Universe which is a combination of Marvel Comics and the world of Dark Shadows -check the stories out.

I write a column called "Tossing Salt - Worldwide News" which is professional wrestling's most eclectic column since 2003 and is available for your reading pleasure at www.pwbts.com. I also have my own blog at wordfiction.com/tossingsalt. I like cats, jelly beans, muppets and chillin' with my nearly 4-year old nephew Kayden & playing with his Batman toys.

I can't think of anything else worth saying so I'll do a couple of lists.

What if Tara's mom had taken her daughter away from her father, brother, and cousin; and ended up in Sunnydale? This story is an AU of chapter 73 in my story "The Aftermath". Anyway, this is my first pure BtVS fiction. Hope you enjoy. *08/17/2016: Profile Updated**
